Director of eGov and Digital Services post (FOI)

​​Request

When did the Director of eGov and Digital Services take on the post, what grade is the post on the civil service pay scale, and [on what date did the postholder leave the role?]

Response

The information you require is exempt under Article 25 of the Freedom of Information Jersey) Law 2011 (the “FOI Law”), which refers to personal information. The information cannot be disclosed because its disclosure to a member of the public would contravene one or more of the data protection principles, which are set out in Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Data Protection (Jersey) Law 2005.

As a public authority, the States of Jersey must observe all of the data protection principles when processing personal data. The exemption from the duty to disclose personal data, where to do so would breach a data protection principle, is an absolute exemption, therefore the public interest test in Part 2 of the FOI Law does not apply.

A similar request has previously been submitted, and for ease of reference we have attached a link to the relevant question and response.
